Ghorepani poon hill trek was beautiful. The scenery was outstanding, the hiking and village were fascinating and the people were wonderful. We got a chance to views of Hinchuli, Annapurna and Dulagiri II mountains. I am so happy that we decided to plan our trip with sarita. The mountains were stunning, the lodging was comfortable, the people were amazing. We are now planning our next trip with Sarita and the team and would recommend everyone to get help from her if you are searching for an experienced guider Thank you!!
